I recently had my underdrive pulley set installed along with a set of gates belts. I noticed that the belts now make a screeching sound when the car is turned on cold. I never experienced this with my pulleys on any other car i owned. Is this normal with the UR pulleys and if so is there anything i can do to alleviate this as is quite annoying and really makes the car look cheap.

 

you just need to tighten it a bit. it's a very common issue.

 

thats what I thought, thanks

 

no i have a tread on maintence!! i have the same problem!!!!!

it only happenes when your car has been sitting for 3-5 hours and when it is cold also when you lock your steering!!! i hope it is not my tensioner

this has been going on for 3 months and i cant fix it!

 

So it still does it, even after you tried tightening the belts?

 

yes i hate it....every shop i take it to supidly just tightens the belts and it comes back 2 days later.................
